Vintage Collecting

Mike Knight and Arthur Ruckle examine vintage cameras amid the organized chaos of Blue Moon Camera & Machine's Portland storefront. Warm tungsten light bathes the ornate tin ceiling and illuminates rows of meticulously arranged vintage cameras displayed on glass shelves, while hundreds of lenses carpet the floor below. The two specialists lean over their inspection table in focused collaboration, surrounded by decades of photographic history in this legendary Pearl District camera shop. — ISO 1600 · 8mm · f/5.6 · 1/60

Camera Connoisseurs at Blue Moon Portland

Portland, Oregon

Camera specialists Mike Knight and Arthur Ruckle evaluate newly arrived equipment at Blue Moon Camera & Machine in Portland, Oregon.

A collection of aging and worn vehicles, including two Volkswagen Vanagons, a rusted VW Beetle, and a red van with a roof rack, are parked on a grassy lot in Portland's Alberta Arts District. Behind them, a large weathered building displays a partial mural reading "Keep...Up," part of the "Keep Your Chin Up" street art piece, featuring painted feathers and organic forms in black, white, and blue. Residential homes, utility poles, and a soft purple-hued evening sky are visible in the background. — ISO 640 · 49mm · f/13 · 1/125
